The Club’s beginning |
In the 1970’s, a community of Slovenian familes and friends in Albury/Wodonga and the surrounding area, came together to socialise. There were picnics organised, and social bocce tournament were played in one of the families’ backyard in Albury. In August 1977, after being inspired by attending dances in Melbourne, the first Slovenian Dance was held at the Wodonga’s Masonic Hall in Jack Hore Place. Entertainment was provided by popular well-known band – “Bled”. The event was a great success, and the hall was filled to capacity. There was great enthusiasm amongst the community to establish a Slovenian Club in the area following the event. A number of families met in Wodonga to discuss forming an official club. On 21st August 1977, the Slovenian Twin City Club Snežnik Albury Wodonga was formed with the first President being the late Jože Kromar.
